Missed Oprah's Life Class with Joel Osteen: 14 quotables to help you catch up!

I have to tell ya, Oprah's life class is SUPER awesome. I am a fan of ratchet TV, yes I watch Basketball Wives and Love & Hip Hop but every now and then I need my soul cleansed. Enter O and Joel Osteen's life class. The show on OWN aired last week Sunday and the lesson was all about 'The power of 'I am'- whatever follows I am will follow you". The question posed to the audience was "how are you inviting the energy into your life"? Check out my list of the most memorable 14 quotes from the Life Class from both Oprah and Joel Osteen.

1. If you wanna know what you're gonna be like 5 years from now, listen to what you are saying to yourself right now.

2. It's not magic but when words go out of your mouth it starts to change your own self image. If you go around all day saying "I'm blessed, I'm beautiful, I'm valuable, I'm creative, I'm disciplined"...it does something on the inside of you, it's what you are hearing about yourself.

3. You become what you believe

4. Your words and thoughts become your destiny

5. Whatever you feed will grow

6. People may try to push you down but when you know God has approved you, you will realize "I don't need other people's approval. I've been equipped, empowered and anointed by the creator of the Universe"

7. God never promised us that we would go through life and not have challenges. But this is what God promises us: He promises that he will give us grace for every season. He will give strength in the midst of the the storm. If you stay in faith with God He will not only bring you out, but he will bring you out better than you were before!

8. As long as you are still here, you are ordained by God for a purpose. If you are breathing, God has a purpose for you. If you were done, he would have taken you on. As long as you have breath somebody needs what you have.

9. God's plan for our life is bigger than our own.

10. God's in control. Nothing is happening to me, it's happening for me. Even though I am in a difficult time, I will be in peace today. When you are in peace it's a position of power and when you stay in peace God will get you to where you are supposed to be. He will move people out of the way and open up doors for you. He's in control of our lives.

11. The enemy always fights you the hardest when he knows that God has something great in your future.

12. Nothing is out order with the divine order of your life. The truth is wherever you are at any given moment, that's where you are supposed to be. True faith is knowing that no matter what- I am going to be OK.

13. It's so important to never speak negative words about you or your family. It may come to your mind but don't give your words life by speaking them out. You may feel it but zip it up and make those positive declarations.

14.Nobody can beat YOU at being YOU!

I am SO inspired! I cant wait to watch next week's episode. What are you "I am" declarations?
